Question: Left high quality vacuum sealed old style cheddar cheese in a open fridge for 8 hours. I then closed the fridge and continued eating it for the next month. I put half in a ziplock bag and the other half into a sealed temper ware container. I ate some today and immediately felt a little off and my stomach is a bit bothered. I’ve been eating it every night this week before bed and I’ve had wet stools in the morning but only once and then In the morning and then Im fine. I was sick with a sinus infection for the last three weeks so it’s hard to determine the cause. What do you think?
It is possible that the cheese spoiled during the 8 hours that it was left open in the fridge, and continued to spoil over the course of the month. Cheese can grow harmful bacteria if not stored properly, and it sounds like the storage conditions were not ideal. Additionally, if you were already sick with a sinus infection, your immune system may have been weakened, making you more susceptible to foodborne illness. It's always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to potentially spoiled food. I suggest you stop eating the cheese and consult with a healthcare professional if your symptoms persist or worsen.
